Ce livre raconte l'enfance et l'adolescence de Lodine, fille de colons. Ne au Congo Belge au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, elle apprend adolescente que dans ses veines coule du sang noir, celui de son arrire grand-mre, esclave en Louisiane. Cela va changer sa perception du monde. Mais peut-on changer " qui l'on est " Albert Russo est l'crivain par excellence du mtissage. Nous allons du Noir au Blanc, de l'homme la femme, de l'Afrique l'Amrique du Nord. Il nous fait rflchir sur nos origines. La description qu'il fait du Rwanda et de la rgion des Grands Lacs incite la rflexion. Nous la connaissons surtout aujourd'hui pour tes massacres qui ont eu lieu entre Hutus et Tutsis. Russo nous parle d'un paradis perdu, l o nous nous souvenons de l'enfer. Toute la beaut du Congo dans un tourbillon d'odeurs, de jeux de lumire, de sensualits qui vous entranent avec une force incomprhensible pour celui qui n'a jamais foul le continent africain. Avec Lodine l'Africaine, Albert Russo revient sur le terrain de son enfance et nous livre une trs belle rflexion sur l'Afrique des annes 50 et sur le sens des origines.
